The chat2 study is testing a new weight management program led by dietitians to support people in building healthy habits.
What’s the study about?
The aim of this 1-year study is to see if providing people with access to a dietitian through telehealth by video can help people improve the quality of their diet and generally feel better about themselves.
Half the people who take part will be asked to continue with current best care for obesity with their doctor and half will be given the chat2 program, chosen randomly. The study will use an app to help record their diet through taking pictures.
